The weeks have passed. True. True. And I still have no title for my 3D short movie I could present you.

Well, frankly spoken, it is not that bad. In other words: I might have a title, but as in the past I still want to wait some time to be truly confident.

Some might think this is too much but I believe a title of something is its essence. A title most of the time is also something with which many people learn about a new movie or short – or any other product in that matter. But what makes a goood title?

I have thought about it during the weeks and I came up with a really short list – which nevertheless makes the task of naming extremely hard:

Although one could get the opposite impression due to some “lack” of recent updates in this blog, I in fact have worked on my 3D short project. Really. Or better: tried to work on it because I didn’t solve anything. Besides some other unsoved “things”(don’t worry, will write about them) one is the fact that I am searching for an appropriate title for my 3D short.

My goal for this 3D short is to find a title that not only fits the mood but also nails it down. And of course it should be a title that is not used that much time on the internets so the “competition” is low. As you can see, this is quite a goal I set for myself.

Exactly one week ago I had an idea for my 3D short movie. An idea that seemed too good to be true because it almost fit everything (as you can read here).

Now this last week I had a bunch of other things to do (as also hinted by the lack of the newest 2001-Post) and I used this chance to let my feelings cool down towards this idea again – I let the initial hype go away.

And you know what? I still like the idea I had.

And you know what this means? I can finally move on! Well, not really, but I can go from the sketch phase of the story design to the actual story design process. In other words: I now can lay out all the major

If you have read my last post, you know that I decided to put some of my story ideas for my 3D short movie, especially the ending, to rest in order to find new possibilities and conclusions.

You know what happened? After flushing down the old ending down the toilet I began my thinking process…

And it took me only 10 minutes to find something. 10.freaking.minutes.

But you what is scaring me? The idea I have seems to be perfect. It fits the overall story, it fits the main character. It even fits the backstory I have written about. It seems to fit everywhere. But – more importantly – it seems to add the feelings and emotions I am constantly after. It would tell a touching story. And it would have an ending

Do you knnow how much text you have to put onto a paper before it is ready to be filmed?

Robert McKee states in his book that, for a good writer and a good finished product, one has to write at least five times the amount of text, if not even ten times. Because otherwise, if the result you see in your draft is the first version with only some dialogue changes, you in fact have written nothing.

And I have to admit it: he is damn right!

In the last few days, besides the redesign works on my page and some other things, I could finish the writing of a short biography, or in Syd Fields words, the inner life of a character. But I didn’t write the biography of the small
